Fred, have you been seeing any of this crap going around? I haven’t run into it myself, but people are sure talking about it right now.

Just a thought.
I wonder if one could clone the infected drive and isolate it to stop the clock on this thing and then hope like hell a fix that will truly work comes along if all else fails.
Here’s a link I received and read in an email from my brother in-law that talks of this issue.

Re: CryptoLocker Infection
Hi Bill. Sorry for the delay. Been away from home for a few days.
Yes, those cryptolocker viruses are very common. Kaspersky has a few decryptors. You can find them here:

I know how encryption works, and I could probably build a decryptor, but unfortunately I haven't came across any sample I can use to test.
If you know where I can find a sample, please let me know.

One thing we humans have in common is that we are all different. So, if you think you're weird because you're different from everyone else, then we are all weird.
